The Key is Impunity

In the last episode before the Lebaran break, Erin is joined in the studio again with Gentle Media and Asumsi’s Lisa Siregar. This week they host a very special guest, Human Rights Watch’s Indonesia researcher Andreas Harsono. Pak Andreas has spent years studying and monitoring Indonesia’s human rights situation and has just published his book Race, Islam and Power looking at political violence in post-Suharto Indonesia. He breaks down what happened last week and how the riots fit into Indonesia’s long history of violence.
